If the search query is as specific as the one in the example shot - fine. If it is a case of - the guys who pay the most get to take over 90% of the SERPS - not cool. But when has G ever cared about that...

The BBC did do an amazing job with advertising and just making everything so easy to watch, so the traffic is well deserved

What did surprise me however was the men's 100M final being 9th most requested

>on the go 'apple users' that need performance and practicality

So your saying that every non-'apple user' does not need or lust for performance and practicality? Wow.

>If applied to the whole 'computing world' instead of their captive market, one might argue that 'Performance and Style' was their intention - but 'practicality'? ... nah, not in the real world.

Hmm...i guess it boils down to what YOUR "real world" is. To a photographer that is constantly out in the field and moving = a god send. To an average pencil pusher (of which Apple know will not be interested in their products) = pointless.

Personally, i do not need these extra benefits in my "real world". However...just to have that extra resoloution to gaze at lustfully. Priceless. For everything else theres Mastercard.

I don't mean to be supportive of Apple (honestly, I really don't), but I've moved back towards smaller screens on laptops. I'm currently running a 14" thinkpad which I love. OK I dock it in the office and have a couple of big screens there, but on the move and at home I prefer the smaller screen.

Horses for courses.

I agree. The big apple have primarily designed this laptop for on the go people that need performance and practicality. Take a look at the demo video. Stunning.

P.S. I'm not a representative for apple, just love their products.
